  • Joe's Truck Stop

    From a ridge in the Ohio River Valley, on a front porch where Kentucky’s

    visible through the winter’s bare trees, Joe Truck Stop conspires over a
    smoking blend of Bluegrass, Honky Tonk, Western Swing, and whatever
    else finds itself inhaled and manifested by way of a wood box and steel
    wire...Years of digesting so much of the Country Blues lexicon and
    traveling the country learning the numerous styles of fiddlers, writers,
    and travelers alike has led to the original music that comes by way of
    Joe’s Truck Stop.

  • Buffalo Wabs and the Price Hill Hustle

    The Cincinnati-based ensemble Buffalo Wabs (as in ‘mobs’) and the Price Hill Hustle can be best described as ‘American’-- from the mountains to Music Row, blues-gospel to traditional country, the Hustle combines parts of the American-born genre catalog to create an energetic experience every single night.   

    This four-piece moves from fast-paced, foot-stomping anthems to harmony-laden ballads and traditional dirges of spirit and labor. “The group started around the love of music that moves you,” says drummer/vocalist and band spokesman, Casey Campbell. “The music accompanies the story; and sometimes the music is the story

    by which we can all connect to one another.”

  • Jeremy Short

    With an orange mustache, golden voice and cherry red Gibson ES-335,

    Eastern Kentucky Space Funk artist Jeremy Short has quickly risen to the
    top shelf of must-hear players on the scene.
    Having garnered significant recognition for his masterful, yet seemingly
    effortless guitar playing “Kentucky’s Jeremy Short is one of the top 30
    blues guitar players in the world. Don’t take it from me — take it from
    the judges at Memphis’s International Blues Challenge, where Short
    semi-finaled in 2016 and 2017. Short is known for his guitar pyrotechnics and commitment to groove” (No Depression), “Jeremy is one
    of several slide players that I’d match their skills up against anyone
    in the world” (Capture Kentucky)

  • David Childers

    Singer-songwriter David Childers is the proverbial study in

    contradictions. A resident of Mount Holly, North Carolina, he’s a former
    high-school football player with the aw-shucks demeanor of a good ol’
    Southern boy. But he’s also a well-read poet and painter who cites
    Chaucer and Kerouac as influences, fell in love with folk as a teen,
    listens to jazz and opera, and fed his family by practicing law before
    turning in his license to concentrate on his creative passions.
    The legal profession’s loss is certainly the music world’s gain.
    Childers’ album, Run Skeleton Run, releasing May 5, 2017 on Ramseur
    Records, is filled with the kinds of songs that have made him a favorite
    of fans and fellow artists including neighbors the Avett Brothers.
    Scott Avett contributes to four tracks, and Avett's bassist Bob Crawford
    co-executive-produced the effort with label head Dolph Ramseur.
    (Crawford and Childers, both history buffs, have recorded and performed together in the Overmountain Men).
